Setting up My Personal List

Editing your Personal List: You can add people to your Personal Address List by clicking the Edit Personal List button at the bottom of the Send Note dialog. This saves you having to type their Internet email address every time you send a note.

The My Personal List dialog allows you to type in an Internet address on the left side of the dialog. Type in the full email address (such as,
jsmith@email.com) and then click the psnotes00000018.gif button or press Enter to add the address to your Personal List forming on the right side.

After adding names to the Personal List you can create/edit a nickname for an address, and you can create/edit groups of addresses that will appear under one nickname on your list. You can also create a
Favorites group here.

Groups

New Groups: You can create groups of recipients, by clicking on the New Group button on the My Personal List dialog. This will open the New Group dialog, which allows you to name the group and select people from your Personal List to copy into that group. You can also delete names from the group in this dialog.

Note: You can create a group with other groups in it.

Editing Groups.
You can add more names to the group later by selecting the name of the group you want to change and clicking on the Edit Group button in the My Personal List dialog. You can also delete names from the group in this dialog.

Note: Deleting a group preserves the original My List entries for each of the members of the group; however, deleting the original entry will also remove that name from membership in any groups. For example, you might have put
Jim (a nickname for someone on your Personal List) into your Delbert Project Group. Later, if you delete Jim from the group, the original entry for Jim will remain in your Personal List. However, if you delete Jim from your Personal List, his address will also be deleted from the Delbert Project Group.

Importing another person's Personal List

You can merge another person's Personal List with yours. The personal list is saved in a file named PSNMsgAddr that is kept in the same folder as the application. If you have a copy of another person's PSNMsgAddr file, you can merge their addresses with yours.

On the My Personal List dialog, click the Import Personal List button. Then open the PSNMsgAddr file. Your list will now include any new addresses from the import file.

Making a Favorites Group

The Favorites group, once created, appears on the Send Note to: hierarchical menu. You can select any one from this group to send your note to, without having to go to the Send Note dialog.

Once you have one or more names in your Personal List, select any of them and click on the Add to Favorites button. A new group will appear in your Personal List, called Favorites.

You can delete an individual name from your Favorites list by selecting the name and clicking the Remove Selection button.
